My bad :) Rawhide is indeed experimental, not beta as I suggested. I've
never seen the recommendation to rebuild from source before, but I'll
remedy that.

Correct. That's why I said there are no guarantees :)

Oh, no! I would never suggest anyone do that. I was a little leery about
suggesting the replacement of automake and libtools, but everything
seemed to be working especially spell checking...which is a must-have
for any Evolution user and I could find no other immediate solution to
get it going on a stock Redhat 7.1 installation.

I would have gone with files from Roswell but it seems to be locked
down.
